The Striped Marlin (Kajikia audax) is a highly migratory species that inhabits the Pacific Ocean. In Mexico, a unique aggregation exists, but unfortunately because of their size and beauty, they are targeted by sport fishing as valuable trophies. Marlins are also threatened by commercial fishing targeting tunas and sharks, where bycatch kills thousands every year.  I never get tired of saying that watching them hunt is probably the most thrilling feeling I’ve had with animals in the ocean. They are SO fast and their body perception in water is outstanding. Can’t wait for this next season!!! #marlins #marlin #kajikiaaudax #marinelife #uwpic #uwphotography #underwaterphotography #wildilife #wildlifeexpeditions #wildlifephotography #marinebiology #marinescience #freediving #oceanholic #sonyalpha
